2011-04-11btrfs: using cached extent_state in set/unlock combinationsArne Jansen
In several places the sequence (set_extent_uptodate, unlock_extent) is used. This leads to a duplicate lookup of the extent state. This patch lets set_extent_uptodate return a cached extent_state which can be passed to unlock_extent_cached. The occurences of the above sequences are updated to use the cache. Only end_bio_extent_readpage is updated that it first gets a cached state to pass it to the readpage_end_io_hook as the prototype requested and is later on being used for set/unlock.

2011-04-11Btrfs: avoid taking the trans_mutex in btrfs_end_transactionJosef Bacik
I've been working on making our O_DIRECT latency not suck and I noticed we were taking the trans_mutex in btrfs_end_transaction. So to do this we convert num_writers and use_count to atomic_t's and just decrement them in btrfs_end_transaction. Instead of deleting the transaction from the trans list in put_transaction we do that in btrfs_commit_transaction() since that's the only time it actually needs to be removed from the list.

2011-04-12cifs: replace /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental with a module parmJeff Layton
This flag currently only affects whether we allow "zero-copy" writes with signing enabled. Typically we map pages in the pagecache directly into the write request. If signing is enabled however and the contents of the page change after the signature is calculated but before the write is sent then the signature will be wrong. Servers typically respond to this by closing down the socket. Still, this can provide a performance benefit so the "Experimental" flag was overloaded to allow this. That's really not a good place for this option however since it's not clear what that flag does. Move that flag instead to a new module parameter that better describes its purpose. That's also better since it can be set at module insertion time by configuring modprobe.d.

2011-04-11Btrfs: fix subvolume mount by name problem when default mount subvolume is setXin Zhong
We create two subvolumes (meego_root and meego_home) in btrfs root directory. And set meego_root as default mount subvolume. After we remount btrfs, meego_root is mounted to top directory by default. Then when we try to mount meego_home (subvol=meego_home) to a subdirectory, it failed. The problem is when default mount subvolume is set to meego_root, we search meego_home in meego_root but can not find it. So the solution is to add a new mount option (subvolrootid) to specify subvol id of root and search subvol name in it. For our case, now we can use "-o subvolrootid=0,subvol=meego_home) to mount meego_home.

2011-04-11Btrfs: check for duplicate iov_base's when doing dio readsJosef Bacik
Apparently it is ok to submit a read to an IDE device with the same target page for different offsets. This is what Windows does under qemu. The problem is under DIO we expect them to be different buffers for checksumming reasons, and so this sort of thing will result in checksum errors, when in reality the file is fine. So when reading, check to make sure that all iov bases are different, and if they aren't fall back to buffered mode, since that will work out right.

2011-04-11PM / Hibernate: Introduce CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKSRafael J. Wysocki
Xen save/restore is going to use hibernate device callbacks for quiescing devices and putting them back to normal operations and it would need to select CONFIG_HIBERNATION for this purpose. However, that also would cause the hibernate interfaces for user space to be enabled, which might confuse user space, because the Xen kernels don't support hibernation. Moreover, it would be wasteful, as it would make the Xen kernels include a substantial amount of code that they would never use. To address this issue introduce new power management Kconfig option CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS, such that it will only select the code that is necessary for the hibernate device callbacks to work and make CONFIG_HIBERNATION select it. Then, Xen save/restore will be able to select CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS without dragging the entire hibernate code along with it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2011-04-11block: splice plug list to local contextNeilBrown
If the request_fn ends up blocking, we could be re-entering the plug flush. Since the list is protected by explicitly not allowing schedule events, this isn't a terribly good idea. Additionally, it can cause us to recurse. As request_fn called by __blk_run_queue is allowed to 'schedule()' (after dropping the queue lock of course), it is possible to get a recursive call: schedule -> blk_flush_plug -> __blk_finish_plug -> flush_plug_list -> __blk_run_queue -> request_fn -> schedule We must make sure that the second schedule does not call into blk_flush_plug again. So instead of leaving the list of requests on blk_plug->list, move them to a separate list leaving blk_plug->list empty. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-04-11sched: Fix erroneous all_pinned logicKen Chen
The scheduler load balancer has specific code to deal with cases of unbalanced system due to lots of unmovable tasks (for example because of hard CPU affinity). In those situation, it excludes the busiest CPU that has pinned tasks for load balance consideration such that it can perform second 2nd load balance pass on the rest of the system. This all works as designed if there is only one cgroup in the system. However, when we have multiple cgroups, this logic has false positives and triggers multiple load balance passes despite there are actually no pinned tasks at all. The reason it has false positives is that the all pinned logic is deep in the lowest function of can_migrate_task() and is too low level: load_balance_fair() iterates each task group and calls balance_tasks() to migrate target load. Along the way, balance_tasks() will also set a all_pinned variable. Given that task-groups are iterated, this all_pinned variable is essentially the status of last group in the scanning process. Task group can have number of reasons that no load being migrated, none due to cpu affinity. However, this status bit is being propagated back up to the higher level load_balance(), which incorrectly think that no tasks were moved. It kick off the all pinned logic and start multiple passes attempt to move load onto puller CPU. To fix this, move the all_pinned aggregation up at the iterator level. This ensures that the status is aggregated over all task-groups, not just last one in the list.

2011-04-11sched: Fix sched-domain avg_load calculationKen Chen
In function find_busiest_group(), the sched-domain avg_load isn't calculated at all if there is a group imbalance within the domain. This will cause erroneous imbalance calculation. The reason is that calculate_imbalance() sees sds->avg_load = 0 and it will dump entire sds->max_load into imbalance variable, which is used later on to migrate entire load from busiest CPU to the puller CPU. This has two really bad effect: 1. stampede of task migration, and they won't be able to break out of the bad state because of positive feedback loop: large load delta -> heavier load migration -> larger imbalance and the cycle goes on. 2. severe imbalance in CPU queue depth. This causes really long scheduling latency blip which affects badly on application that has tight latency requirement. The fix is to have kernel calculate domain avg_load in both cases. This will ensure that imbalance calculation is always sensible and the target is usually half way between busiest and puller CPU.

2011-04-11perf_event: Fix cgrp event scheduling bug in perf_enable_on_exec()Stephane Eranian
There is a bug in perf_event_enable_on_exec() when cgroup events are active on a CPU: the cgroup events may be scheduled twice causing event state corruptions which eventually may lead to kernel panics. The reason is that the function needs to first schedule out the cgroup events, just like for the per-thread events. The cgroup event are scheduled back in automatically from the perf_event_context_sched_in() function. The patch also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() is perf_cgroup_switch() to catch any bogus state.

2011-04-10ext4: Allow indirect-block file to grow the file size to max file sizeKazuya Mio
We can create 4402345721856 byte file with indirect block mapping. However, if we grow an indirect-block file to the size with ftruncate(), we can see an ext4 warning. The following patch fixes this problem. How to reproduce: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/hoge bs=1 count=0 seek=4402345721856 0+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.000221428 s, 0.0 kB/s # tail -n 1 /var/log/messages Nov 25 15:10:27 test kernel: EXT4-fs warning (device sda8): ext4_block_to_path:345: block 1074791436 > max in inode 12 Signed-off-by: Kazuya Mio <k-mio@sx.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2011-04-10ext4: sync the directory inode in ext4_sync_parent()Curt Wohlgemuth
ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal, when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new. ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not sync the directory *inode*. This patch fixes this. Also now return error status from ext4_sync_parent(). I tested this using a power fail test, which panics a machine running a file server getting requests from a client. Without this patch, on about every other test run, the server is missing many, many files that had been synced. With this patch, on > 6 runs, I see zero files being lost.
